The only person in the article who's calling for McDonald's to close is this Puckett character,
But you know something? I _like_ having a McDonald's at that corner. Within walking distance. A perfect place to grab a quick, cheap snack. A McDonald's hamburger costs me less than a buck, it's filling, it tastes good. If I need a quick food-fix I do NOT want to be forced into spending a lot of money to buy food that may not be as dependable as a McDonald's burger. There's no food trucks there, I'm not big on Indian food, Bobby Flay's is thirteen bucks for an admittedly excellent plain burger, Marathon's pricey, and Philly Diner serves up vile, greasy bowel-clogger that tastes like my kitchen sponge. McDonald's, at least, has _quality control_; I know what I'm getting every time. I'm hoping McDonald's holds out here. I can't see anyone raising a protest to defend the place (and sadly, there are a few locals who'd protest _against_ it), but hey, Mickey D's has big resources, and they can handle themselves.
